Tape Update

[laurel_potter]

Back in March of 2012, I counted my tapes, and I came up with the number 2,781. This was an estimate. I didn't actually touch each tape to count them, I did adding and multiplying, which was, with my limited math skills, very dicey

Refresh my memory - What are you doing with them after you watch them?

I throw them away. I'm in the process of editing this, also.

First of all, hi!

Secondly, don't you think it will be freeing to just chuck them all? I'm serious. It will probably feel like you lost 100 pounds and it will free up your life to do other things! Also, anything super important can probably be found on YouTube anyway. I know it would be a hard thing to do since you've saved these tapes for so long and feel you've put so much effort into it but I think it's something to consider. Just my two cents. :)

Hi back!

I've had other people ask me the same thing. I don't have any good reason except they're mine, and I put a lot of time and effort into taping them in the first place. Also, super-important is relative. There are a lot of things that pop up that no one else would care about except me. It's amazing what little gems I've found.

I couldn't just throw them away. I couldn't.
